Write each number in standard form a+bi. -6-√-24 / 2

검증된 단계별 안내
1
Recognize that the expression involves a complex number because of the square root of a negative number: \(\sqrt{-24}\).
Rewrite the square root of the negative number using imaginary unit \(i\), where \(i = \sqrt{-1}\). So, \(\sqrt{-24} = \sqrt{24} \cdot i\).
Simplify \(\sqrt{24}\) by factoring it into \(\sqrt{4 \times 6} = \sqrt{4} \times \sqrt{6} = 2\sqrt{6}\), so \(\sqrt{-24} = 2\sqrt{6}i\).
Substitute back into the original expression: \(\frac{-6 - 2\sqrt{6}i}{2}\).
Separate the fraction into real and imaginary parts: \(\frac{-6}{2} - \frac{2\sqrt{6}i}{2}\), then simplify each part to write the expression in standard form \(a + bi\).

Complex Numbers and Imaginary Unit

Complex numbers are expressed in the form a + bi, where a and b are real numbers and i is the imaginary unit with the property i² = -1. Understanding how to represent square roots of negative numbers using i is essential for rewriting expressions involving √-24.

Simplifying Square Roots of Negative Numbers

To simplify the square root of a negative number, separate it into the square root of the positive part and the imaginary unit i. For example, √-24 can be written as √24 * i, and then further simplified by factoring 24 into perfect squares.
